Subject: Re: SNAP


That seems a milquetoast position for the times we are in. Very passive, and it looks like DEMs stand for nothing to me.

I like to see it as thinking strategically. As I said from the start, the ACA subsidies impact too few people, some 22M, to die on that hill. Now, far more people, who would not have been hurt if the CR passed, are now losing SNAP benefits, or going without a paycheck.

Which would you rather the Dems own? Folding on the ACA subsidies, or costing people their SNAP benefits (42M), or their entire paycheck, or losing their Federal job entirely?
